Book A Parametric Analysis of a Deep Sea Radioisotopic Thermoelectric Generator Employing a Heat Pipe

Download or read book A Parametric Analysis of a Deep Sea Radioisotopic Thermoelectric Generator Employing a Heat Pipe written by Benjamin James Ewers (Jr) and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 71 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A parametric design analysis was performed using a heat pipe in an existing deep sea Radioisotopic Thermoelectric Generator (SNAP-21). Heat is transferred from an annular fuel pellet to an annular thermoelectric generator through a connecting heat pipe. The fuel pellet is fully shielded so that the thermoelectric generator is easily removable. Overall efficiency and the weight of major components were determined for varying fuel radii of from 1.3 to 1.7 inches and for varying insulation thicknesses of from 1.0 inch to 2.0 inch. The analysis indicates that there is a particular fuel radius (at constant insulation thickness) at which minimum weight is reached, while the maximum overall efficiency is obtained at a larger fuel radius. The median design has an overall efficiency (at the beginning of life) of 5.4% and a total weight of 570 lbs. These design results, when compared to the existing SNAP-21 design gives an increase in overall efficiency of at least 7%, and a reduction in total weight of 12%. (Author).

Book Parametric Study of Radiator Concepts for a Stirling Radioisotope Power System Applicable to Deep Space Mission

Download or read book Parametric Study of Radiator Concepts for a Stirling Radioisotope Power System Applicable to Deep Space Mission written by National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-06-03 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Department of Energy (DOE) and the NASA Glenn Research Center are developing a Stirling converter for an advanced radioisotope power system to provide spacecraft onboard electric power for NASA deep space missions. This high-efficiency converter is being evaluated as an alternative to replace the much lower efficiency radioisotope thermoelectric generator (RTG). The current power requirement (six years after beginning of mission (BOM) for a mission to Jupiter) is 210 W(sub e) (watts electric) to be generated by two separate power systems, one on each side of the spacecraft. Both two-converter and four-converter system designs are being considered, depending on the amount of required redundancy.Juhasz, Albert J. and Tew, Roy C. and Thieme, Lanny G.Glenn Research CenterSPACECRAFT POWER SUPPLIES; POWER CONVERTERS; SYSTEMS ENGINEERING; RADIOISOTOPE BATTERIES; RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT; STIRLING CYCLE; SPACE MISSIONS; THERMOELECTRIC GENERATORS
